"Trickle down"(or splash down) I think you might be spot on Doug.

So many times i have been out, just cruzin in my dinghy, and suddenly I get a strong urge to hang a shit.... and guess what? ma dinghy has nowhere to hang it. You have clearly overcome this problem with your design & I commend you for it. A better example of "trickle down" technology for yachts is not immediatley apparent. Well done!

I admire your persistancy. If you showed as much wrt actually building your ideas, we might actually have seen something. I joined this forum 4 years ago, and at that time you were telling everybody how you were working on your latest project and wouldn't reveal it until finished. 4 years on, and still nothing but tatty old pieces of paper and a stream of what most people think are crazy ideas. The only way of convincing anybody is to build something. I think it is now 6 years since you decommisioned your last "foiler", so maybe you can update us as to your progress and if and when we are going to see something. Surely 6 years is enough time for somebody who has so many ideas and spends so much time telling everybody about they.

Please. Don't use this as an oportunity to get personal and attack Doug. I have asked him a civil question, without personal attack. All personal attack have got us in the past is unproductive verbal wars. So, please Doug, can you answer my questions?
